Recenzii

"This wonderful collection of essays explores an under-researched topic - the translation of humour in established media (cinema, television, cartoons and comics) and newer media formats (video-games, global advertising, live media coverage). Delia Chiaro has expertly put together an indispensible resource for our understanding of the intricacies, dynamics, opportunities and limitations of translating humour in contemporary mediated culture."
